The amount he had to pay if he have to purchase a laptop today that is the same value as the one he saw in the ad is $ 390.24.
Given that:-
Price of the laptop after 1 year = $ 400.
Inflation rate = 2.5 %
We have to find the amount he had to pay if he have to purchase a laptop today that is the same value as the one he saw in the ad.
Let the price he had to pay be x.
Hence, we can write,
x + (x*(2.5)*1)/100 = 400
x(1 + 1/40) = 400
x(41/40) = 400
x = 400*40/41 = $ 16000/41 = $ 390.24.

Here you go. Do you think that you could help me with my question
5a – 10b = 45
5a – 10(3) = 45
5a – 30 = 45
+30 +30
5a = 75/5
<span>a = 15</span>
Y=-3+3 answer do I need to explain?
You are correct. The answer is choice C.
The other choices A, B, D have each side add up to 180 degrees either because the angles are a linear pair (adjacent and supplementary) or because the angles are same side interior angles. Same side interior angles are supplementary if a transversal line cuts through a pair of parallel lines as so happens in this diagram.
Treat it as a fraction where it must stay equal
6/54
with fractions, you can do anything as long as you do it so top and bottom
so 6/54=1/9=2/18=3/27=4/36=5/45 etc
but don't forget to convert back to ratios
so some examples are 1:9
2:18
3:27
4:35
5:45
